1369 Must Return Home For The New Year

"But she still cannot have an unknown past!"

"Grandfather, do you trust He Meichun or me?"

Old Master Duan chuckled, "Young lad, you're so good with your words now. I'll trust you, as long as you come home for the new year this time."

Duan Yanhao pursed his lips. Since Old Master Duan had already found out about this, he could no longer hide it from him. "Grandfather, I can't. I have to keep her company."

Old Master Duan felt rather displeased deep down. After all, he ought to be the most important person to his grandson. "Is she more important than me?"

"No, but the feelings I have for her are different. Grandfather, you and I share kins.h.i.+p, but I love her."

Hearing those words, Old Master Duan blushed. "Young lad, why are you telling me this?"

During Old Master Duan's times, n.o.body cared about relations.h.i.+ps and love. Even when one was dating, they had to keep a distance away from each other. n.o.body held hands in front of others.

As Old Master Duan listened to his grandson talk about love, he felt that it was too awkward and mushy.

"You're already in your thirties. I thought that you'd stay single forever!" Old Master Duan felt relieved that his grandson thought this way. However, the woman that he loved couldn't just be anyone else. After all, he had a lot of hopes pinned on his grandson.

The corners of Duan Yanhao's lips twitched as he said, "Even so, you would still be introducing a woman to me, wouldn't you?"

"Haha! You're my grandson indeed. You know how I feel."

"Grandfather, she is not a loose woman. She has a clean background too."

"Young lad, you haven't even married her. Are you siding with an outsider already?"

As Duan Yanhao thought about Bai Yaoyao, the hard curve on his lips softened. "Grandfather, you treat Grandma very well, don't you? Didn't you fight for a long time just to be together with her?"

Old Master Duan reminisced his younger days and seemed to be lost in his memories. His past was really great. Back then, he was carefree yet determined.

As Old Master Duan recalled his heyday, he smiled and answered, "You're fooling with me. The times are different now."

Duan Yanhao continued, "Back then, the Duan family had more rules, and you had less freedom. Despite that, you and Grandma have stayed together for your entire lives. Now, I want to stay firm with my decision."

At that moment, Old Master Duan felt rather conflicted. His grandson's words reminded him of his younger self. As he thought that Duan Yanhao was really similar to himself, pride began to swell within him.

On the other hand, he wanted his grandson to marry a wonderful wife. If he were to end up with an unworthy vixen like He Meichun, he would be really worried.

Old Master Duan sighed. As Duan Yanhao's grandfather, he finally understood how his own grandfather had felt in the past. He felt so conflicted deep down as he worried about everything.

As a grandfather, he had to be firm and stop his grandson from running amok. "You've grown so independent. Are you even disregarding your grandfather's words? You must come home for the new year. Otherwise, you won't be able to see me anymore."

Hearing those words, Duan Yanhao felt rather hurt and could only persuade his grandfather.

As Bai Yaoyao pa.s.sed by the corridor, she overheard Duan Yanhao's conversation on the phone.

Her heart shuddered as she listened. Although Duan Yanhao was protective of her, she could sense that the Duan family was still unable to accept her.
